computer games are great (ive been messing with the freedom force demo, definitely picking that up). but i agree with dhamsaic. having a bunch of friends over and and playing some soul calibur, super puzzle fighter or even mario party is great. the trash talk is classic.
the thing is, for the most part computer games have more depth. civ3, diablo 2, heroes or might and magic, etc. all have very deep and involving gameplay. but im a pac-man kind of guy. i like my gratification instant. crazy taxi on the dreamcast provides that. i can play a game for 5 minutes and enjoy it. lots of console games provide that. playing a computer game sometimes feels like work to me. i love simcity, but sometimes i cant play it because its too much thinking.
